Attitude Of French Writer-Priest, Dead 33 Years, Reflected In Word And Deed By Pope Francis, Eamon Maher
Articles
On October 30th, 1913, in the French village of Montauban-de- Bretagne, Joseph Lemarchand was born, the only child of a tenant-farming family that was ripped asunder by the death of his father in the Great War. A few decades later, as a writer-priest stationed in the Breton capital, Rennes, Lemarchand took the pseudonym Jean Sulivan, a name inspired by his fascination with the movie Sullivan’s Travels . When reading Pope Francis’ groundbreaking interview last August, I had the uncanny feeling that the new pontiff’s views strongly echo what Sulivan was writing in the 1960s and 1970s.

Le prêtre-écrivain Jean Sulivan est encore peu connu en France. Pourtant, Jacques Madaule a dit de lui dans Témoignage chrétien du 30 avril 1964 qu'il était "un auteur capable de continuer Bernanos".

Articles
At the present time in France, organized religion has largely lost its popular appeal. A centuries-old tradition of secularism has replaced God in the hearts of many. It is not therefore surprising that the 'Catholic novel' in its best-known form that of the thirties, when Bernanos and Mauriac wrote their greatest novels is no longer being written by contemporary novelists. That sort of novel simply does not reflect the current spiritual crisis in French society. But there are some writers, and Jean Sulivan (1913-1980 is a600g them, who do portray the human need of and quest for a divine presence …
